Intel Xeon E5 v3 Processors

Key takeaways

• 2,212 listings match this collection right now.
• E5 v4, the Broadwell refresh, drops into the same LGA2011-3 socket with a firmware update and runs memory at DDR4-2400 where v3 tops out at DDR4-2133.
• Haswell moved this line to DDR4, so a v3 upgrade means new memory as well as a new processor, and the DDR3 modules from a v2 board do not carry over.
• The top v3 part reaches 18 cores per socket, up from 12 cores on the top v2 part, the step up in core density that came with the Haswell generation.
